Early morning on Monday 6th February, two large Earthquakes of 7.8 and 7.5 magnitude, hit Turkey near Gaziantep, affecting also Northern Syria and the surrounding areas, while people were asleep.

The death toll has already reached over 7,000 and families of our own ground team based near the epicentre and northern Syria have been affected.

Hitting areas of people who are already in economic and financial crisis and refugees along the Turkish-Syrian border, the shakes have brought down numerous buildings and countless people are injured, without homes and need quick Emergency relief.
